Lice are the busiest during the summer. At Lice Lifters we like to say it is lice season. It is not because lice like the warm weather, but because “people” like the warm weather and spend more time together, thus spreading lice. Here are some tips on staying lice free.
· To be lice free, you must remove every nit. If you leave one or two nits in the hair, the case will start all over again. Heads are infested, on average, two-four weeks before you discover you’ve got lice
· It is important to know that not everyone itches from head lice, therefore it is important to check your child regularly to see if you see any nits in the hair.
· When your child returns from a play date or day at camp, take 5 minutes to do a head check.
· Keep in mind, getting head lice has nothing to do with hygiene. Head lice don’t care how often you wash your hair. You get lice when lice move from one head to another head.
· To prevent getting lice, girls should wear their hair up in a braid or bun. The less accessible that the hair is, the more difficult it is for the bugs to get into it.
· Deter lice by spraying hair everyday with The Nit Nanny Mint Spray.
· Don’t share your pillow at camp
· Don’t share items including hairbrushes, combs, hats, scarves, towels, helmets, sleeping bags, etc.
